CC3000 WiFi shield mDNS and LED example

In this article we look at the CC3000 WiFi shield. We will use the aRest example for CC3000, and we will then use a web address to manipulate some LED’s on and off.

Lets look at the CC3000 chip

The TI CC3000 module is a self-contained wireless network processor that simplifies the implementation of Internet connectivity. TI’s SimpleLink Wi-Fi solution minimizes the software requirements of the host microcontroller (MCU) and is thus the ideal solution for embedded applications using any low-cost and low-power MCU.
